“Continuing in the long-standing tradition of exploring nature, I am fascinated by ordinary–and extraordinary–landscapes, weather, and space. From the micro- to macroscopic, I find myself in the center and am compelled to draw or paint this juxtaposition, as I perceive it.”

Since 2009, Bruce has been working collaboratively with Todd Anderson and Ian Van Collier on “The Last Glacier” project. Their collective artwork is presented in a limited edition artbooks. Check it out! https://www.thelastglacier.com
“As a professional artist and craftsman, it’s been my daily practice to draw and paint whether at home or travelling. Most recently, I have been investigating observable changes in the environment through paintings, prints, and books. The Last Glacier, a well-received book published in 2015 (sold out edition of 15), is now in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the U.S. Library of Congress, and the New York Public Library. Additional books include ROMO: The Last Glacier (Rocky Mountain National Park) and Sentinels, which focuses on tree migration in south-east Utah. Currently, I am working on two books, Baffin Island and Wind River Range, in addition to large-scale woodcuts about the Himalayas.”
“As a master printer, I have collaborated with scores of artists, including Chuck Close, Judy Pfaff, Sean Scully, David Lynch, and Robert Cottingham, to co-direct and develop thousands of successful fine art projects in a variety of print media. I’ve closely mentored hundreds of student employees and volunteers.”
